Interesting that mouse? Got me wondering, is this the natural evolution of violin. Maybe in a few years everyone will be using these, at least there would be no problems with intonation anymore.

I think vibrato and sliding would be harder. It isn't the exact movement like sliding on a guitar. I do not seeing this being n evolution, just a merge of the two for those who want it.
